1. "This is not peace. It is an armistice for twenty years."

2. December 7th, a day that will live in infamy

3. "Never in the face of human conflict has so much been owed by so many to so few."

4. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than live as slaves.

5. "Give us the tools, and we will finish the job"

6. "We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France. We shall fight on the seas and oceans. We shall fight with growing strength in the air. We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches. We shall fight on the landing grounds. We shall fight in the fields and in the streets. We shall fight in the hills. We shall never surrender."

8. I make this direct statement to the American people that there is far less chance of the United States getting into war, if we do all we can now to support the nations defending themselves against attack by the Axis than if we acquiesce in their defeat, submit tamely to an Axis victory, and wait our turn to be the object of attack in another war later on.

9. When you see a rattlesnake poised to strike, you do not wait until he has struck to crush him.

10. Our national determination to keep free of foreign wars and foreign entanglements cannot prevent us from feeling deep concern when ideals and principles that we have cherished are challenged.

11. While ... we cannot and must not hide our concern for grave world dangers, and while, at the same time, we cannot build walls around ourselves and hide our heads in the sand, we must go forward with all our strength to stress and to strive for international peace. In this effort America must and will protect herself.

12 What luck for rulers that men do not think.
